MTL - Psychological Control-Chapter 99
"Do you realize that if they catch up with other squads and tell others about it. Our image will immediately become the standard villain mode?" Dillon handed the fast-forward card to the show crew and got it directly. When the next clue card that should have been obtained by completing the roadblock task was obtained, he whispered to me.
"The game is about to come to the second half, and we are most worried about the reunion will have passed." I do not shy away from the strategy of delaying the opponent's time because of the water taxi, but not using the camera for one second The photographer, who recorded my every move, said generously, "After the two policemen left this round, there are only two rounds of elimination left to reach the final stage."
The implication is that even if other teams know about this and take precautions against us, that's just a icing on the cake. Because in the second half of the game, the alliance of all teams will be broken. Because they need to fight for themselves, it doesn't matter if they have extra defenses against us.
Based on the three photos given, we skipped the roadblock missions of the three coffee shops. Although we were the penultimate roadblock mission to arrive, we were the first. Because the others before, have still not been able to complete this roadblock task.
Find a way? In Venice, a small and cramped alley, I have to say that our fast-forward card used the police in addition to playing the police once.
"Mission around the road, fun and play. Playful branch, go to a bar holding a masquerade-themed night, get your own mask, and among all those with masks, find the person who has the exact same mask in your hand. Find the right person, and that person will give the next clue. "
After I read this branch, I looked up at Dillon, and his eyebrow shook his head slightly to signal that he was not optimistic about the task. Indeed, the seemingly simple task description, in fact, will be more difficult or time consuming in terms of fast-moving program arrangements. I went on to another detour task.
"Play. Go to the Rialto Bridge and take the rickshaw Gondola. After a circle of play, learn the Italian folk songs in the boat's mouth. Finally, return to the bridge and sing to the administrator there. The next clue will be given. "I blinked and turned to look at Dillon." Italian folk songs? "
"Don't you just know some Italian? Just choose this." A bit of a joke, Dillon made a decision as he motioned us to start.
...
In the end, Venice of Water City ended with two police couples with anger control issues leaving in embarrassment. The whole competition seems to have entered a more intense situation.
After Venice, Spain is the land of bullfighting. Most of the tasks in the game are focused on physical strength. Sam and Dean successfully won the first place in this stage, and Zoe and Joseph happened to fall to the end. Coincidentally, this stage is a non-elimination stage hidden in the fast forward.
Maybe it was the show's crew trying to ease the tension created by my means and tactics in Venice on the Water before, or maybe it was for the contestants to take a break before the war. All in all, the two siblings escaped.
Then he moved quickly to Africa, where the harsh conditions eliminated him, and because of physical factors, it was even worse, and David and Kurt and his son, who fell to the end, were forced to eliminate them. The departure of these two people is exactly two extremes from the previous departure of Tevez and Vera. One made people regret that they could fight another round, the other made a clap and said they felt they were going too slowly.
After Africa, the last round before the decisive battle we went to Singapore like a garden city. There, Sam and Dean, who had been crowned as dark horses, accidentally fell to the end because of frequent lost and mistakes, and were eliminated.
Finally, the race, which took more than a month, came to an end.
...
Standing at the end of this stage in Singapore, I was about to start. I took the clue card from Phil in black on a yellow background.
"In the end, you will head to Las Vegas, the U.S .. After arriving by plane, you will need to find the marked vehicle in the airport parking lot and drive to the DC Casino. Follow the instructions given there Mark forward and find the next mission clue. "
The planes are the same flight, which means that our three groups of people have the same starting point on the starting line of the final station. What surprised the show group was that the average age of the finalists in this quarter was too low.
"Change into the uniform of the casino staff, go to Room 223, select a table full of chips, and complete the calculation of all the chips. When you are sure that you have the correct number, tell the notary who is waiting. If you The numbers are correct and will give clues to the next place. "
The time difference between each team arriving at the DC Casino was almost no more than five minutes, and James and Sid were most familiar with it because we had never been to Las Vegas with Zoe and Joseph. And they are the only people who have been there a few times. It can be said that light roads have great advantages.
So the model group first arrived at the casino. When Dillon and I rushed into the locker room, they had changed their clothes and ran to the lobby. Joseph appeared after Dillon and I changed their clothes, and his sister naturally went to the dressing room on the other side.
"Who has the better arithmetic ability and is responsible for the larger denomination chips. Dillon, 248 times 27 plus 60 is equal to what?" I sorted out a little math while asking a math problem. The waistcoat seemed to be one size smaller, and the waist was so tight that it felt as uncomfortable as the corset of an ancient woman.
Originally thought he would not get his answer, at most one got a wink. It turned out, however, five seconds after I asked the exit, Dillon suddenly answered, "6,756."
I suddenly stopped at my feet. Under his doubtful attention, it took me a while to explain embarrassingly: "I just asked casually, I don't know what the answer is. So I just calculated it temporarily after you answered, OK Seems like it's six thousand seven hundred ... "
Dillon glanced at me helplessly, and scratched my waist slightly, and raised my hand. "Then I'll take charge of more than a hundred denominations. After the big numbers have been calculated, I'll help you calculate the small denominations."
I shrugged and continued to walk quickly to the destination hall, and then said, "No, I'm in charge of sorting first. I dare to say that they must stack all kinds of chips together. I'll divide the colors first ... you get from the good pile. Come out and talk about it ... "
This kind of roadblock task like a children's puzzle game has the most test of patience and concentration. James and Sid, the first to arrive, were wrong twice in a row.
Although Dillon and I deliberately slowed down for accuracy, they also passed the notary of the notary and got the next clue when they started to count for the third time. When we went to the parking lot to pick up the car, we were followed by brother Zoe and Joseph.
The first task opened up the distance to a team, and our next clue was a packet of tissue paper given by a notary. According to the hotel name on the paper towel, obviously our next destination is the Marvel Hotel.
Because only the hotel's name was stated on the paper towel, we were still a bit flustered after arriving at the hotel, and finally we saw a yellow-pointed red arrow pointing at the speeding sign in the corner of the hotel lobby. The arrow led us to the back door, where two cranes were parked.
"Wow, the work of wiping the glass at high altitude?" This was the joking voice of Joseph as always. Immediately behind us, we entered the hotel lobby. Zoe and Joseph, who had not fallen behind by accident, spent almost no time looking for marks, and then we saw the clue box in the garden center of the hotel.
"Change the light bulbs on the top of the hotel. After the replacement, you need to tell the staff who went up with you how many bulbs have been changed." I opened the clue card I took out of the box, and the task description was simple , But the end of a line. By the time I looked back, Dillon had rushed to the side of the two cranes that would not be exposed to the setting sun.
All hurriedly put on protective measures, then stepped on a crane to indicate ascent. Even Zoe, who had been thinking about himself and fearing heights, stepped on the crane without hesitation.
"Each one counts the bulb changed in his own hand, and finally adds up the numbers after changing. Counting while changing will slow down our hands." I started wearing work gloves when the crane was almost under the lamp. Dillon suggested.
Dillon hesitated, and nodded: "Although there is one less chance for mutual confirmation, if you think so, it is indeed a way to speed up work efficiency."
Bend down for nearly an hour to pick up the light bulb, get up and raise your hand to twist the light bulb. When I felt that my waist was about to strain my lumbar muscles, I finally twisted the last bulb up. At this time the sun had set, and the sky began to turn dark blue, but it was not darkened by the neon lights of Las Vegas.
"I twisted ninety-eight." I shook my hands and put on my gloves, and said to him unevenly, holding my waist and panting.
"One hundred and six on my side adds up to two hundred and four light bulbs." After knowing my numbers, Dillon turned and said directly to the staff who were waiting for us for a long time. The follow-up photographer who also stood by the side and took the entire process, quickly turned around and turned the camera lens to the past.
"That's right." The uncle who obviously did the job was the uncle who told us that the answer was correct. Then he took the next clue card from his hand.
Then the crane started lowering back to the ground. When our crane was halfway down, I noticed that Zoe and Joseph's cranes were also moving and started to lower the height.
"Go to Lewisroad, where you will take a helicopter to your last terminal! But before the helicopter driver takes you to the terminal, you need to look above the Las Vegas night sky for the speeding sign below Neon sign. "When I said 'but', my throat was a meal, and it was helpless to see the content behind.
"An additional mission was added ..." I glanced at Dillon helplessly, and then found that his eyes kept shining after hearing the long-lost helicopter. "Well, feel like you've found the right light plate and tell the staff in the co-pilot seat. If it's correct, the plane will stop hovering over the city and take you to your destination."
"But!" It was another turning point. I looked at this helplessly longer than the profile of the character who changed the bulb. It was like a chemistry clue description. "The plane will only take you to the sky above your destination. Then the contestants need to ... parachute to the terminal on the ground ..."
I obviously felt that my face was wrinkled, and it was not a pleasant experience for me to give my life to another person. Even if the other party is a licensed professional skydiver.
"Bitter gourd face." I saw Dillon's hand lifted, then squeezed it into my earlobe. "Relax, I have a skydiving license for uspa. If you don't want others to bring it, just let us do it together."
"Okay," I said, taking the back of his hand again. "That being the case, I will give you my life and the chance to win a big prize." 2k novel reading network
